Answer:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Momentum is the mass times the velocity. So if you multiply the mass times the acceleration, you get the rate of change of momentum.

That’s a quantity we call force.

In fact, although we write Newton’s second law today as F=ma , that’s not how Newton thought of it. He said that force is equal to the rate at which an object’s “progress” (which we would call momentum) changes. (Ever wonder why we abbreviate momentum as p?)

A minute with paper and pencil will show that these amount to saying the same thing. Both are equal to mass times change in velocity divided by time. And therefore both are equal to Force.

Answer:

recall the acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, so we can rewrite the second law :force = mass X rate of change of velocity.now the momentum is mv,mass X velocity .......rate of change of momentum.
